Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja is facing significant legal pressure after the Senate County Public Accounts Committee directed the Inspector General of Police, Douglas Kanja, to arrest and present him before the committee. This order follows the Governor’s repeated failure to honour summons, resulting in a KSh 500,000 fine, which is the maximum penalty allowed under the law. Committee chairperson Moses Kajwang has warned that if the Inspector General fails to produce the Governor, the committee will resolve that Sakaja is unfit to hold public office, a resolution that would then be forwarded to the IEBC for further action.
Due to the Governor's absence, the committee has resolved to adopt the Auditor General's report "as is," which highlights widespread irregularities and the misappropriation of public resources across every sector in Nairobi. Specific concerns include 13 issues raised regarding the KSh 1.5 billion "Dishi na County" program, queries over the construction of a KSh 1.2 billion governor's residence, and KSh 9.7 million spent on extra advisers. The committee has also issued summons to 29 more governors, warning that failure to appear will lead to petitions regarding their gross violation of the Constitution and their fitness to hold office.
